Context

The Federal Reserve sets interest rates to promote conditions that achieve the mandate set by the Congress — high employment, low and stable inflation, sustainable economic growth, and moderate long-term interest rates. Interest rates set by the Fed directly influence the cost of borrowing money. Lower interest rates encourage more people to obtain a mortgage for a new home or to borrow money for an automobile or for home improvement. Lower rates encourage businesses to borrow funds to invest in expansion such as purchasing new equipment, updating plants, or hiring more workers. Higher interest rates restrain such borrowing by consumers and businesses.

Content

This dataset includes data on the economic conditions in the United States on a monthly basis since 1954. The federal funds rate is the interest rate at which depository institutions trade federal funds (balances held at Federal Reserve Banks) with each other overnight. The rate that the borrowing institution pays to the lending institution is determined between the two banks; the weighted average rate for all of these types of negotiations is called the effective federal funds rate. The effective federal funds rate is determined by the market but is influenced by the Federal Reserve through open market operations to reach the federal funds rate target. The Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) meets eight times a year to determine the federal funds target rate; the target rate transitioned to a target range with an upper and lower limit in December 2008. The real gross domestic product is calculated as the seasonally adjusted quarterly rate of change in the gross domestic product based on chained 2009 dollars. The unemployment rate represents the number of unemployed as a seasonally adjusted percentage of the labor force. The inflation rate reflects the monthly change in the Consumer Price Index of products excluding food and energy.

Mortgage rates surged at an unprecedented pace in 2022, with the average 10-year fixed rate doubling between March and December of that year. In response to mounting inflation, the Bank of England implemented a series of rate hikes, pushing borrowing costs steadily higher. By October 2025, the average 10-year fixed mortgage rate stood at **** percent. As financing becomes more expensive, housing demand has cooled, weighing on market sentiment and slowing house price growth. How have the mortgage hikes affected the market? After surging in 2021, the number of residential properties sold fell significantly in 2023, dipping to just above *** million transactions. This contraction in activity also dampened mortgage lending. Between the first quarter of 2023 and the first quarter of 2024, the value of new mortgage loans declined year-on-year for five consecutive quarters. Even as rates eased modestly in 2024 and housing activity picked up slightly, volumes remained well below the highs recorded in 2021. How are higher mortgages impacting homebuyers? For homeowners, the impact is being felt most acutely as fixed-rate deals expire. Mortgage terms in the UK typically range from two to ten years, and many borrowers who locked in historically low rates are now facing significantly higher repayments when refinancing. By the end of 2026, an estimated five million homeowners will see their mortgage deals expire. Roughly two million of these loans are projected to experience a monthly payment increase of up to *** British pounds by 2026, putting additional pressure on household budgets and constraining affordability across the market.

This dataset provides insights into the global housing market, covering various economic factors from 2015 to 2024. It includes details about property prices, rental yields, interest rates, and household income across multiple countries. This dataset is ideal for real estate analysis, financial forecasting, and market trend visualization.

This hosted feature layer has been published in RI State Plane Feet NAD 83.The RI Neighborhood Stabilization Program (NSP) Mapping analysis was performed to assist the Office of Housing and Community Development in identifying target areas with both a Foreclosure Rate (Block Group Level) >=6.5% and a Subprime Loan percentage rate >= 1.4% (Zip Code Level). Based on these criteria the following communities were identified as containing such target areas: Central Falls, Cranston, Cumberland, East Providence, Johnston, North Providence, Pawtucket, Providence, Warwick, West Warwick, and Woonsocket. Federal funding, under the Housing and Economic Recovery Act of 2008 (HERA), Neighborhood Stabilization Program (NSP), totaling $19.6 will be expended in these NSP Target Areas to assist in the rehabilitation and redevelopment of abandoned and foreclosed homes, stabilizing communities.The State of Rhode Island distributes funds allocated, giving priority emphasis and consideration to those areas with the greatest need, including those areas with - 1) Highest percentage of home foreclosures; 2) Highest percentage of homes financed by subprime mortgage loans; and 3) Anticipated increases in rate of foreclosure. The RI Office of Housing and Community Development, with the assistance of Rhode Island Housing, utilized the following sources to meet the above requirements. 1) U.S. Department of Housing & Urban Development (HUD) developed foreclosure data to assist grantees in identification of Target Areas. The State utilized HUD's predictive foreclosure rates to identify those areas which are likely to face a significant rise in the rate of home foreclosures. HUD's methodology factored in Home Mortgage Disclosure Act, income, unemployment, and other information in its calculation. The results were analyzed and revealed a high level of consistency with other needs data available. 2) The State obtained subprime mortgage loan information from the Federal Reserve Bank of Boston. Though the data does not include all mortgages, and was only available at the zip code level rather than Census Tract, findings were generally consistent with other need categories. This data was joined to the Foreclosure dataset in order to select areas with both a Foreclosure Rate >=6.5% and a Subprime Loan Rate >=1.4%. 3) The State also obtained, from the Warren Group, actual local foreclosure transaction records. The Warren Group is a source for real estate and banking news and transaction data throughout New England. This entity has analyzed local deed records in assembling information presented. The data set was normalized due to potential limitations. An analysis revealed a high level of consistency with HUD-predictive foreclosure rates.

Context

Have you ever wondered how lenders use various factors such as credit score, annual income, the loan amount approved, tenure, debt-to-income ratio etc. and select your interest rates?

The process, defined as ‘risk-based pricing’, uses a sophisticated algorithm that leverages different determining factors of a loan applicant. Selection of significant factors will help develop a prediction algorithm which can estimate loan interest rates based on clients’ information. On one hand, knowing the factors will help consumers and borrowers to increase their credit worthiness and place themselves in a better position to negotiate for getting a lower interest rate. On the other hand, this will help lending companies to get an immediate fixed interest rate estimation based on clients information. Here, your goal is to use a training dataset to predict the loan rate category (1 / 2 / 3) that will be assigned to each loan in our test set.

You can use any combination of the features in the dataset to make your loan rate category predictions. Some features will be easier to use than others.

A loan is a type of credit where a sum of money is lent to a borrower in exchange for repayment of the principal amount plus interest or other finance charges. Loans can be for a specific amount or available as a line of credit with a maximum limit. There are different types of loans, including secured loans (backed by collateral) and unsecured loans (without collateral), as well as commercial and personal loans.

The loan process involves the borrower applying for a loan and providing relevant information such as their financial history and income. The lender reviews the application and assesses the borrower's creditworthiness before deciding whether to approve or deny the loan. If approved, both parties sign a contract that outlines the terms and conditions of the loan, including the repayment amount, interest rate, and repayment date.

Loans are used for various purposes, such as making major purchases, investing, consolidating debt, or funding business ventures. They contribute to economic growth by providing individuals and businesses with the necessary funds to expand their operations. Lenders earn revenue from loans through interest and fees.

Key components of a loan include the principal amount (the borrowed money), loan term (the repayment period), interest rate (the rate at which the owed amount increases), and loan payments (the amount paid regularly to fulfill the loan obligations). Additional fees may also apply, and collateral may be required for larger loans.

The Loan Analysis machine learning project involves preprocessing steps like data cleaning, encoding, normalization, and feature extraction. Outliers are removed, and optimization is performed using GridSearchCV. Data visualization using Seaborn is used to gain insights. Various models including KNN, Random Forest, and Logistic Regression are employed. The project aims to provide accurate predictions and valuable insights for loan-related decision-making.
